Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Apr. 1st, 191%.

Application filed April 1, 1912. Serial No. 687,565.

To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, Cars TV. WVIEGAND, acitizen of the United States, residing at Los Angeles, in the county ofLos Angeles and State of California, have invented new and usefulImprovements in Mirrors, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to improvements in adjustable mirrors and it isan object of the invention to provide a mirror with a standard forholding the same in various angles, the said standard being adapted tofold upon the edges of the mirror when not in use.

It is a further object of the invention to provide a mirror wit-h alooped standard having clamping means for holding the same at differentangles with respect to the mirror, whereby the mirror may be suspendedor otherwise supported at any desired angle.

In the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification, Figure1 is a perspective view of the improved mirror shown, suspended upon awindow sash by means of the standard thereof. Fig. 2 is a similarperspective view showing the mirror and its standard folded in adifferent manner, the standard being arranged to prop the mirror at asuitable angle with respect to its sup port. Fig. 3 is a side elevationof the mirror showing its standard folded upon the edges thereof. Fig.et is a vertical sectional view through a window sash with the mirrorsupported thereon in the manner shown in Fig. 1. Fig. 5 is a perspectiveview of the mirror placed upon the floor for use as when examining theskirt of a dress or the like.

The details and features of the invention will now be more particularlydescribed, reference being had to the said drawing in which 10 indicatesa mirror having the usual glass mounted in a. frame of properproportions. Pivoted to the said frame is a stand ard 11 formed of aloop having end bars, and a longitudinally extending intermediateconnecting piece. The free ends of the end pieces are pivoted to theends of the mirror, being preferably held thereon by means of a rod 12which passes longitudinally through the frame, as clearly shown in Fig.8. One end of therod is provided with a head 13 while the other end ofthe rod carries a thumb nut 14, so that the end pieces of the upon theframe so that when it is folded fiat with respect to the same itpractically becomes a part of the frame as shown in Fig. 3 and does notproject so as to be noticeable or in the way. The standard also affordsan adjust-able suspending means for the mirror when it is dmired to holdit in elevated positions. Thus the standard may be hung up on a hook 16placed in the upper or lower sash of a window. If it is placed in theupper rail of a window sash the said standard may be so clamped withrespect to the mirror as to hold it in the position shown in Fig. 1 orFig. 4, the upper edge of the mirror being steadied against the glass ofthe window. Of course its angle may be varied to suit the circumstances.The mirror may also be hung upon the hook 16 by means of its handle 15,the standard being turned back of the mirror so as.to support the mirrorat the desired angle as clearly shown in Fig. 2, the standard restingagainst the glass for this purpose. The mirror may also be set up upon atable or the floor, in which case the standard will be employed in aboutthe position shown in Fig. 5. This makes a very convenient supporting ofthe mirror for the adjusting of ones dress or the display of shoes, etc.

iVhat I claim is:

1. A mirror provided with an inclosing frame, said frame having anelongated floor engaging edge; a bolt extending longitudinally throughthe side of the mirror opposite the fioor engaging edge; a bailproportioned to embrace three sides of the mirror and to engage itsopposite ends pivot-ally upon opposite ends of the bolt; and a clampingmember carried by the bolt adapted to clamp both ends of the bailsimultaneously in angularly adjusted position.

2. A mirror provided with an inclosing frame, said frame embodyingopposite sides and ends, one of said sides being an elongated floorengaging side; a bolt extending longitudinally through the opposite sideof the frame and extending beyond the end sec In Witness that I claimthe foregoing I tions of the frame; a bail proportioned to have hereuntosubscribed my name this 21st embrace three sides of the frame andpivoted day of March 1912.
